Abstract
An enclosure device for retaining cables therein is disclosed having a base that is mountable to fixed structure, such as the wall of a building and a cover removably disposed about the base. The base has flanges that extend away from its exterior surface that are mated with flanges extending way from an interior surface of the cover. The flanges are configured such that when the base and cover are coupled together, they form a cavity to house cables and/or wires therein.
Claims20
An enclosure device for retaining cables therein, comprising:
- a base, the base comprising:
- a substantially flat exterior surface and corresponding interior surface, the exterior and interior surfaces extending a predetermined length;
- an upper edge wall extending from an upper edge of the base, the upper edge wall extending a predetermined distance perpendicular to the base;
- an attachment flange extending from the upper edge base wall a predetermined distance, the attachment flange being sized, shaped and positioned to provide an upper attachment point to attach the base to an adjoining structure;
- an upper cover attachment flange extending from the upper edge base wall parallel to the upper base attachment flange and forming an upper cover attachment groove with the upper base attachment flange;
- a lower edge wall extending from a lower edge of the base perpendicular to the base;
- a lower base attachment flange extending from the lower edge wall, the lower base attachment flange being sized, shaped and positioned to provide a lower attachment point to attach the base to an adjacent structure;
- and
- a lower cover attachment flange extending from the lower edge wall parallel to the lower base attachment flange, forming a lower cover attachment groove with the lower base attachment flange;
- a cover configured to mate with the base, the cover comprising:
- an exterior cover surface corresponding to an interior cover surface, the exterior and interior cover surfaces extending a predetermined length corresponding to the predetermined length of the base;
- a cover upper edge wall extending from an upper edge of the cover, the cover upper edge wall being perpendicular to the interior cover surface;
- an upper base attachment flange extending perpendicular to the cover upper edge wall in an opposing direction to the direction of the upper cover attachment flange on the base;
- a cover lower edge wall extending from a lower edge of the cover a predetermined distance perpendicular to the cover;
- a lower base attachment flange extending perpendicular to the cover lower edge wall in direction opposite to the direction of the lower cover attachment flange on the base;
- the cover being removably disposable on the base with the upper and lower base attachment flanges fitting into the upper and lower attachment grooves in the base formed by the upper and lower cover attachment flanges.
A wall trim device, comprising:
- a base configured to be attached to a wall, the base comprising a plurality of fastener surfaces, each fastener surface sized and shaped to receive a plurality of fastener types, wherein the base further comprises:
- an attachment arm extending from the base providing an attachment point;
- a lower arm extending from the base below the attachment arm having a mating surface, wherein the attachment arm and the lower arm each form a cavity within the wall trim device, the cavity being sized and shaped to receive cables therein;
- a removable cover comprising an attachment hanger sized and shaped to mate with and attach to the attachment arm of the base.
A system for directing a person to a location of interest within a structure, comprising:
- a base attached to a wall, the base further comprising an attachment arm extending from the base and providing an attachment point, a lower arm extending from the base below the attachment arm having a mating surface;
- a removable cover comprising an attachment hanger sized and shaped to mate with and
- attach to the attachment arm of the base;
- a plurality of lights disposed within a cavity formed between the base and the removable cover;
- and
- one or more processors coupled to a control unit, the control unit coupled to the plurality of lights.
